LeBron James’ time as an active NBA player is set to end soon after an illustrious career in the league. But for Channing Frye, his former teammate, the four-time NBA champion should retire with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The top high school prospect first entered the league as the Cavs’ number one pick in the 2003 Draft, the same class that produced Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh. From there, he constantly lifted Cleveland to multiple playoff appearances that culminated to a Finals trip in 2007. After failing to get a ring in Cleveland, the All-Star forward signed up with…

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green knows a thing or two about winning championships in the NBA. For the controversial forward, though, the Dallas Mavericks have the look of a champion in this year’s playoffs. Last season, the Mavs traded for All-Star Kyrie Irving after his disappointing stint with the Brooklyn Nets. Unfortunately, he and Luka Doncic didn’t have enough time to mesh together on the court to lead Dallas to a playoff spot. This led the Mavericks to end their season early last year. This season, though, is a way different story than before. Thanks to a full offseason…
The new WNBA season is about to start and there are lot of reasons to be excited for it. For Atlanta Dream co-owner Renee Montgomery, though, the MVP race is shaping up to be a good one with Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson leading the pack. Wilson first entered the league as the Aces’ number one overall pick in the 2018 WNBA Draft. From there, the then-21 year old forward put up an impressive first year in the league by averaging 20.7 points on 46 percent shooting from the field, 8.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.7 blocks per game.…
The upcoming WNBA season is going to be an exciting one since Caitlin Clark is set to make her debut for the Indiana Fever soon. For two-time champion Renee Montgomery, though, the former Iowa Hawkeyes star’s Rookie of the Year battle against Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese is going to be interesting. Back in college, the biggest name in women’s basketball was no other than Clark. During her time playing for Iowa, the point guard established herself as a dominant scorer and an able playmaker for his teammates. Her four-year stint culminated in the Hawkeyes star breaking Pete Maravich’s old…
When Kevin Durant joined the Phoenix Suns last season, fans expected the All-Star forward to find his place with that team, as compared to his time playing for the Brooklyn Nets. But according to NBA analyst Stephen A. Smith, he was never happy in the Valley, especially after exiting the playoffs recently. During the offseason, the Suns went all out by trading Chris Paul to the Washington Wizards for Bradley Beal. Once that deal was pulled off, Phoenix was seen as legitimate title contenders for having a trio of elite scorers in their lineup. That expectation was dashed throughout the…
Like most showdowns in the playoffs right now, the series between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers has been worth it for fans. But for former champion and NBA analyst Kendrick Perkins, there’s a chance these two teams can go to a deciding Game 7. Before their series against the Pacers, New York took care of their business against Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round. In those six games, All-Star guard Jalen Brunson was easily the best player out of everyone when he averaged 35.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 9.0 assists per contest. Meanwhile, Joel…
Unlike most showdowns in this year’s NBA playoffs, the Minnesota Timberwolves-Denver Nuggets series has garnered a lot of attention due to its competitive nature. Among those who have tuned in to this match is no other than San Antonio Spurs legend Manu Ginobili. Before Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves faced Denver in the second round, they swept the Phoenix Suns in a dominant fashion. Throughout those four games, Minnesota’s All-Star shooting guard averaged 31.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 6.3 assists, and 2.0 steals in 39.4 minutes per contest. After the Timberwolves took care of business against the Kevin Durant-led squad, they…
The Atlanta Hawks just received the 2024 NBA Draft’s number one pick, even though they had a three percent chance of winning it. As a result, the franchise is exploring the possibility of trading All-Star guard Trae Young in the offseason to build a better roster. Young first entered the NBA as the Dallas Mavericks’ fifth overall pick in the 2018 Draft and traded shortly after to the Hawks. From there, he averaged 19.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 8.1 assists on a nightly basis during his first year in the league. The peak of Young’s career in Atlanta occurred in…
Boston Celtics legend Paul Pierce knows a thing or two about winning in the league. But when it came to the Denver Nuggets, the current NBA analyst got real on what makes them so hard to beat. The Nuggets ended last season by bringing home the first championship in franchise history. After finishing the regular season with a record of 53 wins and 29, losses, the Nikola Jokic-led squad went through the Western Conference Playoffs and defeated the Miami Heat in the Finals to make history. This season, it was more of the same as the front office maintained the…
Seven years into his NBA career and Jayson Tatum has risen to be one of the best players in the league these days. But before that happened, the Boston Celtics star’s mother did her part in helping him becoming a professional baller. Tatum first entered the league as the Celtics’ third overall pick in the 2017 Draft. While he was considered to be a supporting piece to a Boston team that centered around All-Star guard Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward at that time, the young rookie rose to prominence by eventually becoming the team’s best player in such a short…
